Prayer Requests for Crowd Funding Campaign

May the fund raising goal of 3 thousand dollars be exceeded before the deadline of October 5, 2014.

(The desired amount to be raised is more than 5 thousand dollars.)

May I learn many valuable lessons about crowd funding that I can use for future campaigns.

May God connect me with many generous givers and may God give me favor with each one.

May those who give feel pleased that they had a part in this campaign.

May those who gave money enjoy the perks that were sent to them.

May I work out ways to continue to communicate with those who gave after the campaign.

May I learn how to leverage the social media tools to promote this and future crowd funding campaigns.

May many people gladly share this and future campaigns with their social media contacts.

May all the money raise be used wisely.
